SendActivity class

Creates a new SendActivity instance.

new SendActivity(activity?: Partial<Activity> | string)

Parameters

static $kind: string

Property Value

Gets or sets template for the activity.

activity: TemplateInterface<Partial<Activity>, D & O>

Property Value

An optional expression which if is true will disable this action.

disabled?: BoolExpression

Property Value

Gets a default end-of-turn result.

static EndOfTurn: DialogTurnResult

Property Value

Remarks

This result indicates that a dialog (or a logical step within a dialog) has completed processing for the current turn, is still active, and is waiting for more input.

Inherited From Dialog.EndOfTurn

id: string

Property Value

Inherited From Dialog.id

telemetryClient: BotTelemetryClient

Property Value

Inherited From Dialog.telemetryClient

Starts a new Dialog and pushes it onto the dialog stack.

function beginDialog(dc: DialogContext, options: O): Promise<DialogTurnResult>

Parameters

Returns

A Promise representing the asynchronous operation.

function getConverter(property: Object): Converter | ConverterFactory

Parameters

Returns

The converter for the selector configuration.

Fluent method for configuring the object.

function configure(config: Record<string, unknown>): this

Parameters

Returns

The Configurable after the operation is complete.

Inherited From Configurable.configure

When overridden in a derived class, continues the dialog.

function continueDialog(dc: DialogContext): Promise<DialogTurnResult>

Parameters

Returns

A promise resolving to the dialog turn result.

Remarks

Derived dialogs that support multiple-turn conversations should override this method. By default, this method signals that the dialog is complete and returns.

The DialogContext calls this method when it continues the dialog.

To signal to the dialog context that this dialog has completed, await DialogContext.endDialog before exiting this method.

Inherited From Dialog.continueDialog

When overridden in a derived class, performs clean up for the dialog before it ends.

function endDialog(_context: TurnContext, _instance: DialogInstance, _reason: DialogReason): Promise<void>

Parameters

Returns

Remarks

Derived dialogs that need to perform logging or cleanup before ending should override this method. By default, this method has no effect.

The DialogContext calls this method when the current dialog is ending.

Inherited From Dialog.endDialog

An encoded string used to aid in the detection of bot changes on re-deployment.

function getVersion(): string

Returns

Unique string which should only change when dialog has changed in a way that should restart the dialog.

Remarks

This defaults to returning the dialogs id but can be overridden to provide more precise change detection logic. Any dialog on the stack that has its version change will result in a versionChanged event will be raised. If this event is not handled by the bot, an error will be thrown resulting in the bots error handler logic being run.

Returning an empty string will disable version tracking for the component all together.

Inherited From Dialog.getVersion

Called when an event has been raised, using DialogContext.emitEvent(), by either the current dialog or a dialog that the current dialog started.

function onDialogEvent(dc: DialogContext, e: DialogEvent): Promise<boolean>

Parameters

Returns

True if the event is handled by the current dialog and bubbling should stop.

Inherited From Dialog.onDialogEvent

When overridden in a derived class, reprompts the user for input.

function repromptDialog(_context: TurnContext, _instance: DialogInstance): Promise<void>

Parameters

Returns

Remarks

Derived dialogs that support validation and re-prompt logic should override this method. By default, this method has no effect.

The DialogContext calls this method when the current dialog should re-request input from the user. This method is implemented for prompt dialogs.

Inherited From Dialog.repromptDialog

When overridden in a derived class, resumes the dialog after the dialog above it on the stack completes.

function resumeDialog(dc: DialogContext, reason: DialogReason, result?: any): Promise<DialogTurnResult>

Parameters

Returns

A promise resolving to the dialog turn result.

Remarks

Derived dialogs that support multiple-turn conversations should override this method. By default, this method signals that the dialog is complete and returns.

The DialogContext calls this method when it resumes the dialog. If the previous dialog on the stack returned a value, that value is in the result parameter.

To start a child dialog, use DialogContext.beginDialog or DialogContext.prompt; however, this dialog will not necessarily be the one that started the child dialog. To signal to the dialog context that this dialog has completed, await DialogContext.endDialog before exiting this method.
